One must not exclude the possibility that in a number of cases genetically altered bone marrow may migrate to damaged or inflamed tissues and become there a source of stromal cells, as well as of parenchymal stem cells in a damaged organ, where they may give rise to changed epithelial (precancerous) stem cells or to activated stromal cells, thus leading to malignant tumor growth.

CCL25 and CCR9 expression levels in human pancreatic cancer tissues and normal human pancreas were assessed by immunohistochemsitry. In vitro secretion of CCL25 in PSCs and PANC-1 cells was verified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Pancreatic cancer cell invasion was measured using a modified Boyden chamber assay with CCL25, PSC secreted proteins, and PANC-1 secreted proteins as the chemoattractant. There was immunostaining for CCR9 expression in human pancreatic tumor tissues, but not in normal pancreatic tissue. CCL25 expression was absent in the normal pancreatic tissue sample, but was observed in cancer cells and in the stromal cells surrounding the tumor. In vitro, both PANC-1 cells and PSCs secreted CCL25. In an invasion assay, exposure to CCL25, PSC- and PANC-1-conditioned media significantly increased the invasiveness of PANC-1 cells. Inclusion of a CCR9-neutralizing antibody in the invasion assay blocked the increase in invading cells elicited by the chemoattractants. Our studies show that pancreatic cancer invasiveness is enhanced by autocrine and paracrine stimulation of CCR9. PSCs in the tumor microenvironment appear to contribute to paracrine activation of CCR9.

Bone matrix is rich in growth factors, with insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) being one of the most abundant. IGF-1 acts as a survival factor for tumor cells and we speculate that bone-derived IGF-1 counteracts effects of therapies aimed to target bone metastases and, consequently, that therapeutic effects could be enhanced if given in combination with IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) inhibitors. Simvastatin inhibits the mevalonate pathway and has been found to induce apoptosis of PC cells. The aims of this study were to confirm stimulating effects of bone-derived IGF-1 on PC cells and to test if IGF-1R inhibition enhances growth inhibitory effects of simvastatin on PC cells in a bone microenvironment. The PC-3 and 22Rv1 tumor cell lines showed significantly induced cell growth when co-cultured with neonatal mouse calvarial bones. The tumor cell IGF-1R was activated by calvariae-conditioned media and neutralization of bone-derived IGF-1 abolished the calvarium-induced PC-3 cell growth. Treatment of PC-3 and 22Rv1 cells with simvastatin, or the IGF-1R inhibitor NVP-AEW541, reduced tumor cell numbers and viability, and induced apoptosis. Combined simvastatin and NVP-AEW541 treatment resulted in enhanced growth inhibitory effects compared to either drug given alone. Effects of simvastatin involved down-regulation of IGF-1R in PC-3 and of constitutively active androgen receptor variants in 22Rv1 cells.

The concordances reflect the commonality between primary cancer and metastasis, and also mean that metastatic cancer cells derived from primary cancer are quite conservative in distant sites. The differences reflect variation that cancer cells must acquire new traits to adapt to foreign milieu during the course of evolving into a new tumor in second organs. These comparisons also provided new information on understanding mechanism of vascular metastasis, organ-specific metastasis, and tumor dormancy. The collective results suggest a new hypothesis, biological resonance (bio-resonance) model. The hypothesis has two aspects. One is that primary cancer and matched metastasis have a common progenitor. The other is that both ancestors of primary cancer cells and metastatic cancer cells are under similar microenvironments and receive similar or same signals. When their interactions reach a status similar to primary cancer, metastasis will occur. Compared with previous hypotheses, the bio-resonance hypothesis seems to be more applicable for cancer metastasis to explain how, when and where metastasis occurs.

Therefore, we hypothesized that either 1.) endogenously expressed lumican is not anti-angiogenic or alternatively that 2.) lumican exhibits angiostatic activity only in limited microenvironments. Previously, lumican was shown to suppress tumor growth and angiogenesis in subcutaneously injected PanO2 pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells. Therefore, to determine if endogenously expressed lumican is anti-angiogenic we subcutaneously injected PanO2 cells into wild-type and lumican knockout mice and compared tumor growth and vascular densities of the resulting tumors. We found that tumors grown in lumican knockout animals were larger and contained significantly elevated vascular densities compared to those grown in wild-type mice. Interestingly however lumican knockout animals did not exhibit enhanced angiogenesis in aortic ring assays, matrigel plugs, or healing wound biopsies raising the possibility that lumican suppresses angiogenesis only in tumor microenvironments. To test this possibility, we sought a tumor model wherein lumican did not exhibit anti-angiogenic activity. Utilizing the 4T1 breast cancer model, we found that lumican suppressed 4T1 tumor growth and lung metastasis, but not angiogenesis. In conclusion, these results show that the angiostatic activity of lumican is dependent on currently undefined microenvironmental cues and therefore helps to understand why differential expression of lumican does not consistently correlate with human tumor malignancy. </p>","PeriodicalId":9425,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Microenvironment","volume":"6 3","pages":"263-71"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s12307-013-0134-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"31606162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have previously demonstrated that ROS increased the expression and activity of the chemokine receptor, CXCR4, which enhanced metastatic functions in prostate cancer cells. Studies have also revealed that CXCR4 and its ligand, SDF-1α, promoted ROS accumulation; however the source of ROS was not investigated. Recent evidence suggested that ROS accumulation in prostate cancer cell lines was contributed by the NADPH oxidase (NOX) family of enzymes. Herein, we sought to determine whether the CXCR4/SDF-1α signaling axis mediates ROS production through NOX in prostate cancer. We observed an increase in intracellular ROS generation in prostate cancer cells upon SDF-1α stimulation compared to untreated samples. Conversely, lower levels of ROS were detected in cells treated with AMD3100 (CXCR4 antagonist) or the ROS scavenger, N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC). Markedly reduced levels of ROS were observed in cells treated with apocynin (NOX inhibitor) compared to rotenone (mitochondrial complex I inhibitor)-treated cells. Specifically, we determined that NOX2 responded to, and was regulated by, the SDF-1α/CXCR4 signaling axis. Moreover, chemical inhibition of the ERK1/2 and PI3K pathways revealed that PI3K/AKT signaling participated in CXCR4-mediated NOX activity, and that these collective signaling events resulted in enhanced cell movement towards a chemoattractant. Finally, NOX2 may be a potential therapeutic target, as Oncomine microarray database analysis of normal prostate, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) tissue samples determined a correlation between NOX2 expression and prostate cancer. Taken together, these results suggest that CXCR4/SDF-1α-mediated ROS production through NOX2 enzymes may be an emerging concept by which chemokine signaling progresses tumorigenesis.</p>","PeriodicalId":9425,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Microenvironment","volume":" ","pages":"None"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3855373/pdf/12307_2013_Article_136.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"31768815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
